Hennessy - VS
Cognac
Hennessy V.S. is a blend of the finest cognacs, aged to full maturity in oak barrels in the town of Cognac, where Richard Hennessy established his company in 1765.
Full bodied with a pronounced aroma of oak and hazelnuts, a rich floral taste with tones of red berries and vanilla.
Still operated by the Hennessy family, this cognac is aged for at least 2-5 years.
Hennessy VS is very special to me. I first tried it on holiday with the boyfriend in Ireland. I\'d never tried brandy before this and was instantly hooked. Best when sipped neat, at room temperature (no ice - this only dilutes it) but also fantastic when mixed with an eau de vie (just to give it that extra layer of depth).
What can I say? I am by no means a cognac expert. However, when it comes to Hennessy, I know I'm getting a very good product. I usually drink a brandy with coke in it. However, with this, I prefer it straight. Hennessy V.S. for me is very fruity, and the taste seems to give me something much more than any other V.S that I have had. This blows Martell V.S. away, and I think it is also better than Courvoisier V.S. by a mile. If your a fan of Brandy, then you definitely need to try this, you won't be disappointed.
